There is a WARN_ON_ONCE\nreport when CONFIG_DEBUG_NET is enabled + skb->gso_size is set +\nbpf_prog_test_run is used:\n\nWARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2216 at ./include/linux/skbuff.h:3071\n skb_gso_validate_network_len\n bpf_skb_check_mtu\n bpf_prog_3920e25740a41171_tc_chk_segs_flag # A test in the next patch\n bpf_test_run\n bpf_prog_test_run_skb\n\nFor a normal ingress skb (not test_run), skb_reset_transport_header\nis performed but there is plan to avoid setting it as described in\ncommit 2170a1f09148 (\"net: no longer reset transport_header in __netif_receive_skb_core()\").\n\nThis patch fixes the bpf helper by checking\nskb_transport_header_was_set(). The check is done just before\nskb->transport_header is used, to avoid breaking the existing bpf prog.\nThe WARN_ON_ONCE is limited to bpf_prog_test_run, so targeting bpf-next.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1c30e4afc5507f0069cc09bd561e510e4d97fbf7","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/30ce906557a21adef4cba5901c8e995dc18263a9","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/942268e2726ac7f16e3ec49dbfbbbe7cf5af9da5","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/97b876fa88322625228792cf7a5fd77531815a80","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b3171a5e4622e915e94599a55f4964078bdec27e"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:17:07.138532058+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2025-68363","score":0.00212,"percentile":0.11428,"date":"2026-10-26"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
